VENTILATION

When not in the open air below a truck, the genverter normally
draws  air  from  the  engine  compartment. An  engine
compartment with natural ventilation must have vent openings
of  adequate  size  and  location  to  enable  the genverter set  to
operate  without  overheating. To  allow  an  ample  supply  of  air
within the temperature limits of the genverter an opening of at
least 900 cm

is required.

A  "sealed"  engine  compartment  must  have  a  good  extraction
ventilator to maintain reasonable ambient temperatures. High
temperature  of  intake  air  reduces  engine  performance  and
increases engine coolant temperatures. Air temperatures above
40°C  reduce  the  engine  power  by  2%  for  each  5°C  of  rise. At
higher  temperatures  the  electric  output  will  be  lower. To
minimize these effects the engine room temperature must not
exceed  the outside  ambient  air  temperature by more  than
15°C.
Apply  a  combination  of  ventilators,  blowers  and  air  intake
ducting  to  meet  the  temperature  limit. The  air  inlet  ducts
should run to the bottom of the engine compartment to clear
fumes  from  the bottom and  to  circulate  fresh  air. Air  outlets
should be at the top of the engine compartment to remove the
hottest air. An engine compartment blower should be used as
an extraction ventilator to remove air from the engine room.
In  cases  where  it  is  impossible  to  meet  the  above  mentioned
temperature  limit  by  using  engine  compartment  ventilation,
connections  are  to  be  made  for  an  air  inlet  directly  to  the
genverter enclosure. With these connections the genverter can
be directly connected to an air duct.
Air inlets should be louvered, where appropriate, to protect the
engine room and to protect the genverter from rain and water
spray.

CONNECTIONS

The genverter comes with all supply lines and output cables (i.e.
electric  cables,  exhaust connecion,  fuel  lines  etc.)  already
connected. The supply lines are fed through the capsule’s front
base. The connections are marked as shown in Figure 6.
Refer to Section 5.1 for a graphical overview of installation and
wiring connection requirements.
All  electrical  connections,  cable  types  and  sizes  must  comply
with  the  appropriate  national  regulations. Supplied  cables are
rated  for  ambient  temperatures  up  to  70°C. If  the  cables  are
required to meet higher temperature requirements, they must
be run through conduits.

ATTENTION!
Before  working on  the  system, read  the  safety
instructions.
